Early birds will receive a world of bonus goodies.

Gamers who pre-order the upcoming strategy title World in Conflict will be receiving a world of bonus goodies, not the least of which is access to the game's beta event. Pre-ordering from participating retailers will nab you a bonus DVD from the History Channel, extra multiplayer maps and privileges, and a guaranteed spot in July's beta test.

The History Channel DVD, "Modern Marvels: Strategic Air Command," reveals the inner workings of the key cog in America's Cold War military machine. The Strategic Air Command oversaw the nation's entire nuclear arsenal from 1946 to 1992. Nukes play a big role in World in Conflict.

Because World at Peace probably wouldn't be a very exciting game.

Those who pre-order will be able to secure their online name before the game's release so that their handle will be ready to go on launch day this September.
